The Slaughter of Gita Momufo | Gethirien

Military: Battle

Working in tandem with the Kingdom of Linyariel (Evening Star), Lord Elaris Sylthienlor took the area that would become Gita Momufo | Gethirien from indigenous lesser elves, slaughtering all the male elves, leaving only the female elves and children alive. The survivors were escorted to Gufa Guda and put into boats being told to never come back again.

Gita Momufo was an important location as it dictated land access to Evening Star, and the settlement that would become Tree Green.   Lord Bub Gegbi was given the task of taking Gita Momufo from what Evening Star saw as uncivilised 'lesser' elves; the reward being Lord Bub gaining lordship over Gita Momufo, Gufa Guda, and Gugib Gegbi.   In the dead of night, Lord Bub approached Gita Momufo with 3000 elven troops. The town with a population of 1000 elven women, men, and children - mostly traders and travelers - were unaware of the incursion. The few guardsmen (mostly bodyguards for the merchants) were drunk as the night before Evening Star had gifted the town food and drink for festive celebrations.   In their drunken stupors and deep sleeps, the guardsmen were slaughtered, along with all the elven men of fighting age. The massacre was systematic and efficient. At dawn, only 100 elves were left alive (female elves and few children). They were escorted to Gufa Guda and put on boats being told to never come back again.   Lord Bub Gegbi was granted the Lordship of Gita Momufo, Gufa Guda, and Gugib Gegbi by the ruler of Evening Star.
